Musician Korby Lenker Returns to Idaho Thursday a Medium Hero

According to the title of his debut book, Idaho-born Korby Lenker may seem like he isn't one to brag—but he has plenty to be proud of.

Lenker, who now lives in Nashville, Tenn., will be in Boise on Thursday, Jan. 21, to share his multiple writing talents: First, in a songwriting workshop at Boise Rock School at 4 p.m., then at 7 p.m. at Rediscovered Books, where he'll read from Medium Hero (Turner, Dec. 2015), his new collection of 27 short stories "inspired by his life as a traveling musician with a cat and finding beauty in everyday life."
